Online Postcard Exchange using Google Maps

Please join our K-12 Google online Postcard exchange project. This
project was started this month by my school in Beaverton, Oregon. We
invite you to participate in our collaborative Google Map project (see URL below).

It is open to classrooms of ALL ages and any location. The main goal
of this project is to share famous landmarks, locations, or unique
aspects of your home state or region.

Go to my website to learn more about the project:

~Postcards can be made by individual students or classes as a whole.
~More than one postcard can be embedded for a location.
~Please do not use photos that have copyright restrictions. Consider
using images from Wikimedia Commons those that use Creative Commons
licensing.
~Include research and descriptions along with your postcards - it
makes it so much more educational.

Good luck, be creative and have fun. Email me if you have any problems
or questions.
